Description
In 1828, two young women were torn apart as they were sentenced to transportation to Botany Bay. Their story is one of love and loss, forged in the harsh realities of life in 19th-century England. A tragic event sets off a chain of circumstances that leads to their separation, but it's at the Refuge for the Destitute in London where Hannah and Annie first meet, forming a bond that will test their strength and resilience. Based on a true story, The Low Road is a gripping tale of survival, love, and prejudice. This book brings to life the hidden voices of Britain's female convicts, offering a moving and atmospheric portrayal of a pivotal moment in history.
